This is a criminal background check required for all caregiver before they can message families.
Experience: 10 yrs
Over the last few years I have cared for almost two dozen clients with diagnoses ranging from Parkinson's to cancer to strokes to Alzheimer's. I cared for my in-laws full time for 5 years until they passed away at home. She had Alzheimer's and he had many physical ailments. I did medication management (including diabetes), household chores, meal prep, companion care, bathing, grooming, toileting and managed the entire care giving team providing 24/7 care. I wrote a caregiving manual we used for the team, as well as compiled various logs that we used to track everything from diet to meds to bathroom trips. I continued my caregiving journey as I had learned so much that I want to help other families walking the caregiving road. Prior to caregiving, I was in IT Training and Support for 17 years and was a home educating mom of two who have graduated. I am organized, dependable, caring and an excellent communicator. I am flexible about times I can work, days or overnights.
Sara came and supported my parents on some overnight shifts to help provide care and support for my dad after his stroke. Sara is very knowledgeable and understanding. Her experience with working with dementia gave her great understanding of my dads needs and we were grateful she was able to help us in that season! Thanks!
